Made the mistake today of getting weldon on the plexi as glueing in the rear windows. I searched the archive without luck. Any ideas how to remove without affecting the plexi?

I had some run off of weldon on the inside of the plexi on the first window I installed. I tried several different polishing systems to get it off but really wasn't happy with the result in such a high visibility area. The glass still had a haze to it. I finally bit the bullet and ordered a replacement plexiglas window.
5 months down the road on the build and I'm really glad I did a complete replacement. No second guessing if it could have been done better. And I knew how not to do the window.
Hint-be very careful that the masking tape is tightly sealed so you don't get any weldon seeping under it. I found the 3m auto detailing tape from an auto body shop much better than any of the painting masking tapes from Home Depot or equivalent.
